Concerts featuring Bas Wiegers in season 2024/25 or later
To explore sound's intricacies, Kaija Saariaho put it "under the microscope." The SWR Symphony Orchestra, with violinist Carolin Widmann, honors the late Finnish composer. Saariaho's early work "Verblendungen" intertwines orchestra and tape. Her violin concerto "Graal théâtre" draws inspiration from the Holy Grail legend. The concert opens with Lutosławski's lively "Little Suite" and concludes with Debussy's "La Mer."
Works by Lutosławski, Saariaho, and Debussy performed by Carolin Widmann (violin) and the SWR Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Bas Wiegers. The program includes Lutosławski's "Little Suite", Saariaho's "Graal théâtre" and "Verblendungen", and Debussy's "La mer". A pre-concert talk starts at 7 pm.
French composer Pierre Boulez and American composer Elliott Carter first met in Paris in the early 1950s and formed a lifelong friendship. Ensemble Musikfabrik and Bas Wiegers commemorate these two important modern composers with iconic pieces of contemporary music. Clarinetist Carl Rosman takes center stage in Boulez's 'Domaines', exploring space in dialogue with five instrumentalists. Carter's 'Double Concerto' features a musical conversation between two chamber orchestras, with soloists Benjamin Kobler (harpsichord) and Pierre-Laurent Aimard (piano).
